I think you are right not to worry. After all it's not what you do but how you do it. Knowledge as they say is power.

So for example I was always taught that even if you do use a vacuum that the householder has you can often teach them the right way to use it to get the most effective clean ie. the best vacuum stroke is on the pull-back stroke and the push-forward stroke is predominantly for re-positioning the upright.

thats what i do, if they have a dyson aswell, as long as it's an upright.
Thinking of becoming an agent for dyson, so i can sell them to custy's, as there so impressed when they see what i take out of there carpet, even after they've already vacced.

Personally i think it's the fact that carpets seem to get 'used' to a certain vacuum cleaner and, lets face it, most people who vacuum the same room time and time again will likely do it in the EXACT same way and direction. To that end, i think that using a vacuum cleaner with a different roller brush to the usual one, and used in different directions too, could possibly be fecthing up more muck than usual?  ???

To vac correctly means to go east to west and then north to south, and as someone pointed out the real work is done on the pull stroke.
I was demonstrating this to a young man who couldnt get the bits off his carpet with his Dyson.
Used the BS36 which removed the bits with ease, told him the Felix would be a better size in his home, off he went to Google on his computer and bought one immediately.
